A lazy afternoon. Two lovers kissing. Cocktails by the pool.

A white yacht down in the harbour. Mischevious Whispers -

Four smooth edits for the summer, gently crafted and

wrapped into the amazing cover art by Jiro Bevis

No, this is not a Spandau Ballet Edit - it's PM Dawn motherfuckers. Softies got it the hard way when smashed from the stage by KRS but luckily they survived to spread their message of love and understanding. Set Adrift is a wonderful example of post De La smoothness that you still can play today.

Half of the tracks of this amazing album here are Villa-Lobos compositions - Leaving enough playtime for some self-penned songs by Haberl and his comrad Hubert Waldner, who also plays flutes and saxophone. And then there are these wonderful vocals by some lady called D.B. One that will not only make collectors of italian 70s soundtracks cry. This beauty is out of this world!!
